Walk the Line (2005)
He was a voice of rebellion that changed the face of rock and roll. An outlaw before today's rebels were born - and an icon no one would ever forget. He did all this before turning 30.

While not as electrifying as it was in a darkened movie theater on a huge canvas, Walk the Line is just as good on the small screen. Mangold's stirring biopic may be marred by some inevitable Hollywood conventions (the early childhood sequences are a bit questionable), but it's still much more successful than 2004's Ray....

Joaquin Phoenix gives a strong performance as Johnny Cash, but with a story that just drags a long, we're lucky to have any music at all.

A sharp, sturdy, unassuming sense of direction makes this biopic snap. James Mangold and Gill Dennis work to keep us involved at the emotional level, a point that is helped along perhaps because the film is based on the Man in Black's very own writings. The lingering spirituality doesn't come off as reaching or 'stuffed...
